I was wondering what it might look like if given some "artistic" processing - like a painting someone would want to enlarge, frame, and hang in a prominent place on the wall. 1 Nov 2008 11:01am @Viewfinder: Thanks Vf, I like processing, I do a lot of it, but rarely on a beautiful nature photo...don't know why ;) Janice Thomson from CanadaWhat a striking photo - winter certainly came early to your side of the country.
